No more MAFS

[bobiwien]

If only sexual deviants would just stop. A lot of it about.

If only they had left it as the nice innocent programme it started out as.

And the same goes for the threads.

What was wrong with the threads?

I wouldn't be able to watch any after the allegations. The show went wrong in every way. I watched all of them, but looking back, I remember April? (the ex beauty queen) being bullied to the point of tears by the gay man at the so called bride's safe space get togethers, and the guy she married being accused of controlling behaviour by previous exes. Being "forced" to share a bed and be encouraged to get intimate with a stranger was bad enough, but now we know that basic safeguarding checks weren't even carried out.

Who would have thought a show like that would end up like this?

Well I for one enjoyed the show, as I love watching the blossoming of new romances. I like first dates and I used to like Love Island, but I feel like that’s more a hook up, I want to be famous, entertainment show rather than wanting genuine connections.

I think most people went on MAFS with genuine intentions of wanting to find love but of course there will always be the exhibitionists who aren’t genuine or at worse are predators. It’s a shame for their partners and you can’t predict how someone will truly behave unfortunately. With that in mind I understand they had to pull as it’s not worth the hassle, but it’s a shame that the behaviour of the minority ruins it for the majority.

Will Mafs Australia still run? Obviously won't be broadcast here. The allegations have put me off too and I did enjoy it.

I always liked the mafs threads on here better than the actual programs. They were so funny. I'll miss them.
